Add I2C and it's child device nodes for beagle board.
The I2C1 controller child devices are not populated and it
should be handled along with OMAP clock changes.

Drop 'status' when you move this node definition to
arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3.dtsi.  Board overlay files that include the
omap3.dtsi should explicitly disable any devices that it does not use
(which is opposite to what tegra currently does, but I'm going to
change that).

Purely out of idle curiosity: What's the benefit of one way over the other?
